Hey everybody this is Devin Ingram again coming to you from Minooka Community High School. It has been a long, but much needed break before our opening meets. It has given athletes time to heal all the pains they may have gotten since their last season ended. New athletes may spring up from past injuries. There may be new athletes coming into the school’s program. Just thinking of all the possibilities and new challenges is exciting. This year will be a new frontier for all.
I am sure everyone is excited for this year’s opening meet for their team. This is sadly the start of the last season for many athletes that have had a drive for success throughout the few seasons in their program. With the opening meets coming shortly, one has to keep in mind the ambition of other senior athletes. This ambition is what drives them to have a need to succeed in the season. These senior athletes know what it is like to leave empty handed from a meet. The opening meets are a glimpse of the possibilities to come in their last season; they will not be taken lightly.
The race to find the best athletes on your team starts soon. Who will it be? Which team will come up on top? I can assure you readers’ one thing, Minooka Track and Field is gunning for the spot! The long halt on track and field will be over as teams bring up their best athletes to the various opening meets around the state.
With the opening meets underway, one may see other athletes becoming more serious about the work and time put into practices. With the days slimming down one may see who on the team has their mind as well as their heart in the right place. Coaches can attest that they have seen athletes with a good balance of that combination lead themselves to a victorious season.
Ending on that note about having a victorious season, let’s all have an opening meet filled with triumph!
Thanks for reading everyone!
